Pillion

Post by EasyRider »

So this weekend my wife eldest daughter (36) came to stay.
I have said in another thread that i would buy here a bike if you gets her CBT.

Well we did nearly 100 yeasterday around the back roads and it was a great day.

Today we did nearly another 100 miles, but near the end of the ride Lucy fucked up.
We were in traffic and i pulled up next to my wife as she was riding her bike.
Next thing i knew i was nearly over. My right leg and right sholder are now hurting from holding the bike up.
Lucy thought it would be funny to lean across and push Joy's visor down.
The sudden movment of weight court me off guard.
Only 10 mins earler we were only talking about moving on the back seat.
I said as long as i was upright and was told they were about to move, it would be ok.
We have 3 way intercoms so could talk to eachother.
We are now home. I'm in the snug watching TV, Lucy is in her bedroom and joy is in our bedroom.
I've been made to feel like i was in the wrong.
Lucy did come in to apologies to me. Then as she finished she went BUT. which pissed me off.
We were having a great day up until then.

That's the younger ones of this day an age I'm afraid, they're never wrong (in their mind) and their mothers always protect them! Stand by your experience and knowledge of motorcycling, you're in the right.
